I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

There is a precedent for a person getting someone else's Nobel Prize. In 1943, the Norwegian writer Knut Hamsun, gave his Nobel Prize in literature to Joseph Goebbels uwapress.uw.edu/book/9780295...

Well, I suppose that finally settles the question of which one isn't a "real" Nobel Prize.

As I’m sure most of you know, I’m a huge ww2 nerd. This type of resistance and community organizing is like what you’d read from Anne Frank, the Dutch, and the French as their communities resisted the Nazis.

Except it’s happening right now. In Minnesota.

by @democraticwins.bsky.social CNN just aired a devastating compilation of all the times ICE brutally attacked Americans. Remember, Donald Trump sponsored this. This is done at his command.

Many friends asking what it is like in Minnesota right now. This video-clip tells. Masked men w/ guns in ordinary places (gas stations, grocery stores, cruising streets) intimidating ordinary people & instilling fear. As a terrorism expert, I think about the logic of government instilling fear.

I like this both on a humanitarian level and a "fuck you MAGA" level.
In addition to abolishing ICE and criminal investigations, we need to think about reparations for those who survive being brutalized by the regime.

I would suggest, at a minimum, permanent legal status for anyone injured or detained for more than 24 hours regardless of criminal background.

Federal agents and ICE are in Central Florida. It’s crucial to prepare and know your rights if you encounter law enforcement in the community or if ICE comes to your door.

If you or a loved one need assistance, you can reach out to my office at frost.house.gov or by calling us at 321-388-9808

The way that these guys are being constantly embarrassed, pushed around, and mobbed in a way they absolutely cannot control by the public in an increasingly dramatic fashion is giving me hope.
Today at the Whipple Federal Building in Minnesota while federal agents rushed the protest crowd, one agent is filmed pushing a protester and slipping on ICE. Another agent has his pepperball gun broken and he slips on the cartridge holder while dropping pepperballs all over.

Saint Paul schools will be closed Tuesday and Wednesday to prepare for optional online learning.

I’ve seen schools close for snow, for pandemic, for natural disaster. I’ve never seen schools close because of threat from our own government.

RFK Jr loves boasting of his sobriety after a long period of heroin addiction, including when he was a rookie prosecutor in NY. So today he wiped out the support networks for other addicts without any Kennedy money or connections, who will now die as a direct result. www.npr.org/2026/01/14/n...
Trump administration sends letter wiping out addiction, mental health grants
The Trump administration sent hundreds of letters Tuesday terminating federal grants supporting mental health and drug addiction services. The cuts could total as much as $2 billion.
